Sunday Funday: Chinese New Year

Join us for a celebration of Chinese arts, crafts and culture on one of our exclusive Sunday
openings. We are celebrating the Year of the Dog with musicians, storytellers, artists and
activities for all the family. Soak up the atmosphere with traditional Chinese music, art and
dance. The afternoon will be packed full of Chinese traditions with The Chinese Contemporary Art Gallery Roadshow and Confucius Institute of Manchester University, with their free drop-in workshops, where you can learn about the Chinese arts of paper folding and the tea ceremony, shadow puppets and badge-making. Plus there will be free family crafts in the City Library on the Lower Ground Floor. There’s something for everyone – you won’t want to miss it! Drop in throughout the afternoon. All activities are free, no need to book.
